Agilent | H7218A/B-212: GPIB Programming with MS Visual C++

Students will learn about the Fundamentals of IEEE-488, or GPIB interface standards. This course deals interface basics, which includes a description of the functional, electrical, mechanical and operational aspects of the interface and key specifications of the IEEE-488 standards.

The course also includes fundamental concept of Windows based programming; which includes Message based programming structure, Object oriented programming architecture and most of all you will get lots of tips when programming with the GPIB programmable Instrument. As the course progresses, you will gain knowledge about not only GPIB theoritical aspect, but also get technical skills for programming.

At the end of this course, you will be able to make a window based instrument test programming, configuring instrument for test and be familiar with SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments).
